Didn't he try his hand as a lead guitarist once and froze on stage during a solo and that ended any talk of him being a lead guitarist?
I never heard that before. He was a guitar player though before accepting the bass role (which he never wanted to do). I believe Paul would have become pretty damn good at any instrument if that was what he chose to play at the time.
Paul as a non-bassist?! (bigeyes2) *shudders*
paul drove stu out and took over the bass postion grudgingly.........
^ Ouch, when was that? Like during the Hamburg days?
Can you blame him? Paul wanted the band to be good. Hell, me or you could play the bass as well as Stu and i've only picked one up twice and that was just to look at it.
